The only guy that knows what will happen whenever I go to a auction is Phil Silva...Nothing surprises him anymore.

To hell with a boat, the motors are cool and you got the best part. But what's up with them little cars.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] and I don't mean the ones in the glass case... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Looks like you can’t quit yet – there’s a bunch of empty shelves! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

You could try mounting one of the outboard engines on back of the Isetta or the Peel and see if they will float. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

C[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img][img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img]L!!!
If the opposed twin in the box is a whole conventional motor w/ shaft/prop and looking for a home, please let me know more about it..
A buddy o' mine has a 30's era Hydro racer he inherited from his Grandfather w/ one of these Speed-Twin motors but some bastard pinched the motor and he needs another..

The one in the box is the one pictured out of the box called &quot;Fold Light&quot; by Evinrude. It is hinged to fold up, so you can put it in the box and then the trunk of your car. No I'm keeping it..

Thanks Charley!.
The one buddy had was a similar era Evinrude called a Speed Twin, looked much the same including gastank and an opposed twin too but no folding mechanism!.
Now that you're an old boat guy, please keep your eyes peeled!.

I wish I had your problem Charley! I've never even had enough money to be a registered bidder at an auction! LOL
